It uses country data derived from Wikipedia combined with pycountry's data source.\n\nThe package provides functions to map countries with customizable name formatting (default, lowercase, or uppercase), convert between any pair of country identifiers, and look up continent codes from country codes. It has no runtime dependencies beyond pycountry and pprintpp, making it lightweight to install.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last release 2018-02-18) and has not been tested against modern Python versions. While the MIT license is permissive and installation is frictionless, the lack of maintenance means country data may be stale and bugs will not be fixed. Consider using an actively maintained alternative or integrating pycountry directly with your own conversion logic."},"id":"pycountry-convert","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pycountry-convert","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pycountry-convert.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pycountry-convert/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2018-02-18","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pycountry-convert","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Extension of Python package pycountry providing conversion functions."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":484175,"position":6405,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.7.2"}
